60-66 cab corners
Does anyone make repro cab corners for 60-66? The ones I bought are for 67-72, and my resto supplier says that is all that's available. My bodyman will have to do a Houdini to make them look right. Would sure be nice to have the correct set. This is a very common rust spot for these trucks.

Check out Top Banana. They have everything you need as far as patch panels.

Re: 60-66 cab corners
Thanks for the tip, I'll be sending away tomorrow for a new set. I've looked at your trucks, cool projects, and it looks like you are going about it the right way. Don't feel too special about the floor rust, it happened to most of them, especially up here in Canada. No real inner fenders, you can feel the rocks hitting the floorpan under your feet driving down a gravel road. Never saw one with the dash and inside the cab rusted like that though.

Re: 60-66 cab corners
LOL, yes this is the first one i have ever seen or owned with that much rust in the dash and sunvisor area. Fortunetly i have more time than money so i will tackle one rust hole at a time and maybe get it all repaired one of these days.

Re: 60-66 cab corners
Thanks, looks like the ones from Tabco, IMC, and Top Banana are all the same piece. Don't know why my restoration parts supplier didn't have these. I'm taking the 67-72 corners back.

Re: 60-66 cab corners
The ones this guy sells are made in the USA, not in China like nearly all of them.
